The Garden side effects ,pics and a Query!

Hello Precious Friends! Hope and pray that all of you are having safe life with no serious painful disease and hope that you are thanking for this beautiful healthy life to your Dear God through each breath you take .I said so because i strongly believe that whatever God gives us is just his own love for us and nothing extra ordinary we do to deserve it otherwise.Today i am talking with you about my small garden area which is 10 by 10 beside the entrance wall of my front yard .

This photo is from winter October just to show you width of my small garden beside maingateIn summers we sleep in our yard just because of me as i love sleeping in natural environment rather than artificial cooling.

Garden in last month Garden is favorite place for all living creatures like sparrows ,parrots ,crows and some other kinds of small and big birds who's name i don't even know . But there live also a sort of an invisible REALLY TINY insects who once in a while bit any of our family member and cause trouble.Last day my younger son (14 years old) was bitten by some insect while sleeping in the yard almost 5 meters away from garden . When he woke up in morning his left eye has swelling and looked reddish.

Beautiful flower bull in my garden that blooms well only in temp less than 40 or above than 20 only He looked little sick and lazy .I asked him to take leave from school but he said his monthly test are going on and he has to go . But When he returned at 2 pm noon he was shivering with fever and swelling spread to his left cheek too.

bird nesting under the bull in mild weathers He complained he has headache . We both were so worried and hubby gave him a tablet for allergy that he keeps at home since long as he also has some skin allergy.We also gave him a tablet for fever as our family doctor where we go comes to his clinic on 6:30 pm evening so we thought it will give my son some relief. Thank God self medicine worked and fever left within two hours . Doctor gave him some medicines which made him feel better today . I did not let him go to school today we mother and son had lots of good time together . I dely my chores and sat with him .

don't know the name of this lovely plant We talked lot about each other lives and interests future plans and etc. I felt this time PRECIOUS as i know such sittings occur rarely He made paintings of some of his favorite cartoon characters.

It has only one thick flower that last for many weeksI made his fav food biryaani (chicken rice). He does not like sweets and it annoys me i love sweet though can't eat as much i want now but glad that i make him eat some fruits everyday as he is so lazy in eating fruit .His fav is spicy stuff specially fried which is unhealthy if use it constantly .

Evergreen flower in two colors white and pink Oh my where i am going with my topic . Actually i want to ask you that almost all of you have Gardens so

My younger son took this pic while he was outward side of our colony ,liked it!WHAT DO YOU DO TOO KEEP AWAY SUCH HARMFUL INSECTS??? Kindly let me know your solutions as i need to know it.Thank you for stopping by dear fellos.I wish you a Happy ,Healthy Peaceful life with loving family and beautiful friendly weathers,amen.Take Great Care,Love You All ,God Bless You All!!!

Your garden is lovely and I'm glad you got to spend time with your son but sorry it was because of his insect bite. I wish I could help but thankfully we don't have problems with dangerous insects here. Could your mystery plant be some sort of celosia?

Good that your son feels better meanwhile! Such bad insects - I don't have any solution. Here I use a thinned apple vinegar in a spritzer bottle - half filled with water - half filled with apüple vinegar and spritz it on my skin when I go to the fields and the forrest with my dogs. That helps me- my dauthger doesn't like the bad smell - she swears by Lavender oil.Your garden is so beautiful!Be blessed my friend!oxo Susi

Thank you Baili for sharing your kindness of heart and gentle thoughts, that calm and for your pics, showing us your blessings of a Loving Creator! Reminding us to breath in deeply happy and healthy thoughts of truth to keep us sound and content!My eye lid is coming along, thank you, I have to remember to use a warmed green tea bag on it for 10 mins- helps draw out the infection. For your son, maybe a tea bag of neem might help - as we discussed the many benefits that healing herbs has!I agree with Susi ~ apple vinegar slightly watered down. http://www.gardenguides.com/99364-vinegar-insect-garden-spray.html They might be 'no seem um' bugs. You probably already washed the area with warm water and soap without getting it in his eye. Also aloe vera can be soothing. You'll have to use your grandma skills! The warm/hot tea bag might help too to draw out any infection, make sure its just a bite and no eggs laid.Thank you too for your correspondence! With Appreciation! God Grace keep you and yours :)

You're welcome and 'thank you' :)I was scanning your blog in a hurry this morning, but wanting to leave you a message - had to get to something else I promised to do - and now just reading it, I'm glad your son's feeling better! BUT what a PRECIOUS TIME you had w/ him and how Love made this 'not so good time' into something "FAR MOR VALUABLE!" SWEET. You might not have gotten to eat sweets in your mouth, but you got SWEETS for your spirit and soul! LOVELY!

i fell honoured that you spent some more of your precious time on my blog .i will do same as i am managing to visit gradually to visit all my friends including you dear as soon as possible ,it is 1 pm noo here and hour left to kids get back to home from school so i am almost done with my lunch preparations.i really pray for your health my precious fellow ,may you get better and better soon and live a perfect healthy life ,amen

I am glad your son is feeling better. Insect bites can be so scary especially when you do not know the exact type of insect you are dealing with. Good you got to spend some quality time with your son though.Blessings.

I'm glad your son is okay! That sounds like a nasty bite. I don't have any solutions that will be of help. There are many sprays and lotions to keep the bugs away but there isn't a specific one that I can recommend.

Thank you dear Jan !My younger son is usually very active and naughty so when he feel sick the whole environment of the house sounds barren.I am glad I spent good time with him and I realized it influenced him positively. Today he left happily for school while ago

Baili, I am thankful to hear that your son is okay. How worrisome that must have been for all of you. I'm glad that you and your son got to spend a special time together. It sounds like your son is serious about his studies which is awesome. School is important, but sometimes other things, like health, must take priority.

I can't offer any helpful solutions about keeping bugs away. In the past we used a bug repellent like OFF or DEET, but I wouldn't recommend them for any regular use ~ possibly harmful chemicals, especially if it got into the eyes or mouth. We've also used citronella candles, but you don't want to go to sleep with a lighted candle. Maybe sleeping under a mosquito net??? I would try some of the suggestions in the comments above.

Yes he is quite serious about his studies now than before as he sees his elder brother that how ambitious he in life .he irealize his elder brother and wants to be something in life as he talks about it excitedly.

We use lotion though but we did not like it's smell and my both young sons dislike it what to do we changed many but they hate smell of each .we either but we have to apply though for some insect it's not working.

That is a scary tale. Your poor son. So happy that he is better and that you were able to have fun mother/son time at home. My son-in-law sprays my home inside and out twice year and whatever he uses does rid my home of bugs. I will find bugs but they are dead when I see them.

Hi Baili :) I'm so glad your son got better. I'm guessing it was an allergy to the venom that the insect had in it? Alex gets really bad reactions from black flies, which are the most annoying little bug that exists around here. He basically stays indoors during the bad black fly season because we've tried everything. Home remedies, home insect repellent, even DEET - which is basically a toxic bug repellent which works 90% of the time...but who knows what it really does to us who wear it?? I don't like the idea of wearing poison!!!

We have net hats too, that keeps the bugs away from our faces and heads, but still allows us to breathe okay though it's a pain to see. Long shirts, even though the black flies seem to get through them too!

I don't think we can ever avoid those nasty bugs, I just can't stand them. That's why autumn is one of my favourite seasons, no bugs!!!

PS I love all of your garden photos!!! Do you ever grow vegetables and herbs?

I am so happy your son is doing better! The only thing we do in our garden to keep away bugs is burn citronella candles. It almost smells like lemon and bugs don't like it. Unless you spray yourself with bug spray, that will keep them away too! Love your garden photos! bIg Hugs!

Baili in hot countries I have found that burning incense sticks really works as insect don't like smoke, also rubbing skin with lemon as they don't like citrus. I hope you can protect your family from these insects - tiger balm (vics, eucalyptus ointment) gives great relief.

So sorry I have no solutions about the bugs but I am reading the comments with interest.

I'm glad your son responded favourably to the pills and is feeling better. And you made good use of the time together; we don't always get time with our kids when they are open to discussing serious things!

I can image how frightening it must have been for your family, Baili, when you son suffered these effects. I was wondering if you have ever had any other bad reaction from sleeping outdoors, and hopefully there have not been. While I have heard of some of the home-made remedies that others have recommended, whenever I have been in an area with insects around, I have used a store-bought product. Glad you and your son were able to spend same lovely time together, despite the reason.

I'm glad that your son is getting better after the bad reaction to the insect bite. It must have been worrying for you especially as you have an on-going problem when you sleep out to get some relief from the heat. (You have a beautiful garden which gives you much pleasure I know). We also have issues regarding the danger of bad reactions to insect bites in the hot Summer season in Italy. We burn citronella candles when sitting out and use repellent lotions containing natural products and the same if we get bitten. Because my immune system is weak my doctor prescribed a course of antihistamine tablets before we went to Italy recently and it helped a lot when I got bitten from mosquitoes. My husband did not take antihistamine tablets and he got bitten by something whilst working in the garden. The place on his arm became swollen and painful. There was relief from using a lotion on it, but several weeks later the area is still sore. Wishing you all the best.

We too use lotion but only apply when about to lay in yard , it doesn't work as cure when we get bitten though.I sorry for your husband who has suffered with such painful experience that went as long, hope he feels better soon .it is great that your doctor prescribed tablets for bettering your immune system and glad it worked for you my friend .thank you so much for best wishes dear ,my heart has same for you and your family!

Sleeping outside sounds very pleasant, but that kind of insects are very scary. Fortunately your son feels better now. I can't really suggest any remedies against insects. Mosquitoes are bothering here, but not really dangerous. Sometimes we use incenses or candles, if we want to sit outside in the evening. To protect the plants we don't really need any products, because ours is a very natural environment (almost woodland :)) and there are birds and other insects that limit the number of (harmful) insects.

Dearest Baili, wow...such a beautiful garden!! I can see why sleeping out there is a really inviting idea.I have found that burning citronella garden torches is a good way of keeping unwanted insects at bay. It really does work (for me, at least!), so would be worth a try.:)I am so happy your son is doing well...such good truly brightened up my day!
